The Belk Theater is the largest venue in the North Carolina Blumenthal Performing Arts Center, seating 2100 at its full-capacity configuration.

It features state-of-the-art equipment, production and support capabilities and can host any event - from grand opera to rock to corporate annual meetings and lectures.

The theater is designed in a contemporary European horseshoe arrangement for an intimate atmosphere and world-class acoustics.

The most distant seat is less than 135 feet from the stage.

A hallmark of the theater's design is some 2,400 "points of light" in the audience chamber, part of a dazzling fiber optic network with multi-color capabilities.
